Veep was excellent, and she was hilarious in it.

DayZ just had it's 10th anniversary! It is just a great game, complicated and unwieldy but man you can do pretty much anything.

Obviously there's the zombies, that's a given, but everyone I meet is playing a different game. PvP can be bonkers... or you can live as a woodland hermit; foraging mushrooms and fruit, hunting animals and fashioning outfits from their pelts. The possibilities are endless!

An active modding community and regular developer updates means it never gets stale. Fantastic platform, I think it's neat.

A woman I know, younger than 30, received the "husband stitch" after giving birth. She does not trust medical professionals, and I don't blame her.

It's so bogus that negative perceptions of public school are ruining the homeschool community. When I started homeschooling my kid something like a decade ago there were a lot more genuinely interested parents homeschooling their kids, now it's mostly political ideology. Bad parents using homeschooling as an excuse to neglect their kids because the school will teach them sex ed or something?

In the last few years I put my kids into a modified public school program, the co-op is ruined

Doesn't the pioneer woman's family own the land involved in Killers of the Flower Moon? Pretty wild stuff

I'm not sure where you live but if you can find some native seeds from your area, plant those! It's the perfect time in many northern-hemisphere places for overwintering things like wildflower, clover seeds and more! Fancy lawn grasses are bogus and weak

We got out of the city before door dash, grocery delivery, etc. so we don't even know what we're missing when we trek over a hundred miles to the Costco. I'd imagine that makes it easier!

Starlink is everywhere! There is no cell service here so we had much more limited communication prior.

It's a beautiful dream! Almost a decade ago my family and I left the city and bought land with some other folks. Now it's just us out here in the wilderness, others are welcome but most people can't leave the city.

You seem have an incredibly narrow view of what is "right" and are willing to dole out judgement based on your beliefs. I do truly believe that everyone is doing their best with the tools that they are given, and I cannot discount their efforts. It is not my place to talk shit idk.

I live the way I do because I am uniquely able to, most people are not. I cannot fault others for not being able to live this lifestyle because it takes MONEY and TIME that most people do not have. I don't think your solutions are necessarily the solutions we need, I personally live in a state where taxes on the individual are the answer to every problem and it only makes it even harder for people to survive? Not great.

The world is complicated and very hard, obviously the system is not "magic," but I don't accept that consumer gas, meat, and bottled water is entirely the problem here when most of the Pacific Ocean garbage patch is commercial fishing nets (just one example). We need corporate accountability before anything else.

Igss I'm just here commenting to let you know that I don't think it's these Lemmy users' faults that shit is shitty, and that I am not a "mindless consumer" or whatever.
